Q: How do we get from the cruise ship terminal to the meeting place of the tours?

We recommend to use a taxi from the terminals to the meeting place of the tours. It is easy for you to use a taxi because some taxis always are waiting for customers just out of the gate of the cruise ship.
It is better for you to leave the ship earlier because you make sure to catch a taxi. So we recommend you go out the ship as soon as possible the ship arrives at the port because there are a lot of passengers.
